Yemeni Air Force

The Yemeni Air Force (YAF; Arabic: القوات الجوية اليمنية, romanized: al-Quwwat al-Jawwiya al-Yamaniya) is the air force branch of the Yemeni Armed Forces. It inherited its aircraft from the former states of North and South Yemen who were supported by the United States and the Soviet Union during the Cold War, respectively. However, numbers of its aircraft can not be confirmed but serviceability of these aircraft is low, as a result of most of the air force being destroyed by airstrikes during the Saudi Arabian-led intervention in the Yemeni Civil War.
